ABSTRACT:
An anchor member for detachably securing a rope having a loop at one end to a boat includes a member of sheave-like design having a circumferential groove to seat the rope loop. The member is largely enclosed by a cover having a peripheral flange forming an internal chamber open at one end and only slightly radially larger than the member. The flange has a circumferential opening wide enough to permit both sides of the loop to pass through it when the loop is seated in the groove. The cover is secured to the member for both rotation and axial movement and resiliently biased to telescopically seat over the member and substantially cover the groove but easily lifted by an operator to expose the groove for attachment and removal of the rope.
